The result was no consensus. This has been on AFD for a month and we are pretty evenly divided in numbers and quality. Time to wrap up. Stifle (talk) 09:17, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't find anything in the sources that actually prove notability. n.1) IAFD (not reliable), n.2) this one is the only one I am not sure: I can't find anything about the author and I believe this book it self is not enough to prove notability, n.3) its autobiography, n.4) i found it online here all I could find was a passing mention of his name, n.5,6,7) its autobigraphy, n.8) a very short bio in Tabernacle Baptist Church Atlanta that definitely doesn't prove notability. So, putting all together we have a passing mention on a good book, a book that I believe not being "relevant". AlejandroLeloirRey (talk) 02:50, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Per
    WP:GNG. While sources mentioned by nom, are indeed questionable, sources in Further Reading section are much better, and IMO do go over the threshold. Ipsign (talk) 06:52, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply

  • Keep We don't have that many articles on people of his demographic (second-career African-American clergy), so it fills a niche.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 04:40, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete no evidence of criteria of
    WP:NACTOR being fulfilled. In detail: I see no evidence of significant roles in multiple notable films, large fan base, or unique contribution. Hekerui (talk) 11:11, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete There doesn't seem to be secondary in-depth coverage in multiple sources about the person and they have no notable film roles. Also, the suggestion that the article should be kept just because it fills a niche is extremely questionable. Either the subject meets the requirments of notability or it doesnt. In this case it doesnt. Adamant1 (talk) 12:34, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep this journal article is a sustained analysis entirely focused on Blake. Between this and the book, which interprets Blake and his work at length, I think we have a pass of GNG. The range of other sources, such as the coverage of the news scandal and this extremely brief book review may be useful to flesh out the article, but those are the two that I think show notability.
